Providing for the future

As we are a growing community and welcoming new sisters, we have outgrown our current convent.

We are, therefore, planning an extension to accommodate this, not just for today but for the future too.

What's happened so far

By God's grace, we have been given the planning permission for our extension project. We can go ahead! The planning covers a bigger kitchen and dining area and more rooms for new sisters.

The new layout of our Priory will have more space open to the public, ensuring that we have appropriate areas to welcome day retreatants and support our pastoral work.

We’re also excited about expanding our library to further support our life of study, without which our preaching mission cannot take place.

Our target is £1,500,000

A project like this has to be completed whilst our convent is still an active living and working space. This is why the sum needs to be raised in its entirety, to allow the project to be completed as we continue to carry out our mission day to day.

So far, we have raised £200,000 towards this project but we can't finish it without you... Join us as we build for our and your futures.
